And they were all yellow!!

Yellow is the color evoked by light that stimulates both the L and M (long and medium wavelength) cone cells of the retina about equally.


There are some colors that, upon seeing, stimulate something in your brain that makes you feel wonderful - hence your favorite color. When I was young, I think that color was pink (I know....how cliche) - I am not sure why but it just made me feel good. Yellow on the other hand, has always been one of those colors that has never really inspired me. But lately, I have been finding myself so into yellow! I am not sure if I would call it my favorite color, but I am quite enjoying it for the moment!!


Here are some images of yellow that I am loving!! Doesn't she look fabulous in this perfect yellow cardigan (love the buttons in the back) and this Proenza Leather Satchel is to die for!! Plus, I love the sunshine inspired painting!!! What colors are inspiring you?? Do you have a favorite color??

A Great Hat Speaks for Itself!

It is still too cold and windy here in Atlantic Canada to wear a hat. However, when it does warm up enough to allow me to trade in my tuque (wool hat) for a real hat, I will definitely do so!!!

I think these ladies really know how to rock their hats - don't they look fantastic?? Each hat seems to give the outfit a unique sense of character, which, I think, can only be achieved by a hat!! I am pretty sure I could see myself in all of these hats!!

Some Mid Week Street Style Inspiration!!

I was feeling like I needed a bit of inspiration to get dressed this morning. So, I turned to my most trusted style blog, Stockholm Street Style to get some ideas for today's outfit!! These are the looks which caught my eye and why!!


I love how she really worked the brown color pallet and the gold bow is a nice change from the black one we have been seeing everywhere.

She makes this outfit look so effortless and beautiful!! I would love to wear this today!!!

Love the pop of color that the pink pants give her!! Plus I have a pink pair of jeans which may be able to give a similar look!

This look is so simple, but I somehow love it!!

The layers of black that this girl has going on is amazing!! A perfect winter look!!

All my love,
